Long Way to the World Series

Today I played in the Spread-Limit tourney at Bay 101. Finished 22/117. The top 18 places were paid so again I was close to the bubble. I won a few races but never really built up a chip stack. Most of the players were solid. I should have gone all in with AQ when my stack was mediocre. After the flop I was outplayed and lost. Also, I lost with AK to KJ when a straight popped up on the river. My final hand was 77 against the chip leader at my table who flipped up AK. He eliminated me with a set of kings. Overall, I played my game as planned. The problem, however, is my game isn't surgically sharp yet. If I don't improve, I will be the easy to spot WHALE at the WSOP. Also, clearly I didn't win with or crack AK. No chance to win a tourney when that happens.
